Benefits of technology

This patent describes a display device and method for driving it that saves power by adjusting the brightness of the image being displayed. Additionally, it includes a feature that detects and processes high luminance areas in the image, improving its quality and overall display effect.

Problems solved by technology

Accordingly, if bright light of a high grayscale is displayed, current consumption is increased, so low power driving is needed for various displays.

exemplary embodiment 1

[0093]Referring to FIG. 9, in the first exemplary embodiment 1, when an average grayscale value SO_AVG of high luminance is increased so that the high luminance region is expressed at one time point t1 when a background region luminance variation ratio BELLP_AVG is increased to a 100% luminance ratio, a high luminance region luminance variation ratio ELLP_SO is increased to the luminance ratio of 100% so that the background is region luminance variation ratio BELLP_AVG is sustained during a time period from the upper luminance sustain interval to a falling time point t2. Next, a high luminance region luminance variation ratio ELLP_SO is equally controlled to follow a luminance variation of the luminance variation ratio BELLP_AVG.

exemplary embodiment 2

[0094]The second exemplary embodiment 2 of FIG. 9 represents a case where an average grayscale value SO_AVG of a high luminance region is increased so that the high luminance region is expressed at one time point t3 when the background region luminance variation ratio BELLP_AVG of 100% continues for an upper luminance sustain period. In this case, the high luminance region luminance variation ratio ELLP_SO is increased to a luminance ratio of 100%, an upper luminance sustain period of 100% determined in the background region luminance variation ratio is sustained, and then the first period is additionally sustained. Next, the high luminance region luminance variation ratio ELLP_SO is equally controlled to follow a luminance variation of the background region luminance variation ratio BELLP_AVG. That is, the high luminance region luminance variation ratio ELLP_SO is increased and sustained with the luminance ratio of 100% to a time point t4, which is a finishing point of an upper lum...

Abstract

A display unit including pixels which display an image according to an image data signal transferred corresponding to each of the pixels, and a controller to receive and convert an external input video signal to transfer a luminance conversion data signal corresponding to the respective pixels. The controller includes: an input image data to receive the external input video signal; a scale factor calculation unit to determine at least one control factor for luminance conversion with respect to an input video signal corresponding to the pixels received from the input image data receiving unit; and a luminance data conversion unit to convert luminance data with respect to the respective pixels using the at least one determined control factor and to output the luminance conversion data signal.

Description

CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATION[0001]This application claims priority from and the benefit of Korean Patent Application No. 10-2013-0062963, filed on May 31, 2013, which is incorporated by reference for all purposes as if fully set forth herein.BACKGROUND[0002]1. Field[0003]Exemplary embodiments of the present invention relate to a display device and a method of driving the same and, more particularly, to a method of implementing a low power consumption drive and a display device thereof.[0004]2. Discussion of the Background[0005]In recent years, various types of flat panel displays having reduced weight and is volume have been developed.[0006]For example, flat panel displays include a liquid crystal display (LCD), a field emission display (FED), a plasma display panel (PDP), and an organic light emitting diode (OLED).[0007]Among flat panel displays, the organic light emitting diode (OLED) display refers to a flat display using electro-luminescence of an organic material. Ele...
